Grammar: Local Achievement Exam Prep. Week 2 Notes Parts of a Sentence Subject: The “who” or “what” performing the action in a sentence. To find the subject, ask: Who/what is the sentence about? Who/what completes the action? Example of Subject: Jane walked down the street. Predicate: The verb (action) that the subject performs. Example of Predicate: Jane walked down the street. Direct Object: A noun or pronoun that receives the action of the verb. Example of Direct Object: They launched the ball over the fence. She gave the food to the dog. Indirect Object: The person/thing that something is given to/ done for. An indirect object: Answers the question “to whom?” or “for whom?” Will always be a noun or pronoun You can’t have an indirect object without a direct object! Examples of Indirect Object: We will make him an offer. The attendant gave Robert some water. Object of Preposition: the noun or pronoun that comes after a preposition. Remember, a preposition links a noun or pronoun to other words in a sentence. Examples of Object of Preposition: The book is on the table. Katherine arrived with Charlotte.
